I generally nose hook mine (just in front of the eyes side to side) using an appropriate size hook for the different size baits or target fish. The bait usually just slides up the line. As it gets worn out I just clip a little off. I’ve caught fish in one cut back past the eyes. I will add weight as needed. Sometimes just a split shot above it and sometimes drop shot style. I’ve caught multiple fish (spotted & striped bass) on one lure. I recently bought some of these CoreTackle weighted hooks for river fishing. Can’t wait to try it.
That's a great idea Mark! I bought some of those when they came out and tore a whole bag of them up trying to learn how to rig them. I did take some Mend It to the head of the bait and they were like new. I'll have to get them back out and try the TUSH hook on it. Thanks for the underwater footage.
I got these before they were released in the sack subscription. Bait was ruined just trying to figure out how to rig it. Never bought them after seeing the Durability issues others were having
Looks like a 5/0 hook with 1/8 would look better and give it a slower fall, when I watched your video lure dropped fast and crashed right into the eyelet and smashing knot/line seem it may cause to many break offs. If u use that 7/0 maybe rig it 1/4" back so nose of bait hits bottom before eyelet does, just an opinion and what I saw on video, but still a good video, thanks
every lure has its ups and downs; to you maybe awesome and to someone is trash; it's up to you as an angler to understand and utilize to your needs and style of fish
All of Sixth plastics are WAY too soft and no durability. Even the tiny minnows are one fish baits. That's how they get all that action, which really is not necessary. The Tush hook with a drop of crazy glue is probably your best bet. But I could not throw an open hook on the bottom.
I think I'll hold off on buying anything like this until they start making them out of that Elaztech material, so they last longer. Even better will be when the Chinese start copycatting these baits and making them for three or four bucks per dozen of them with free shipping. Then it won't matter as much how long they last.
Cheap bait! It's not an expensive bait at all. My Hinkle trout is a 750.00 bait. The action is amazing the quality is cheap China crap. Does the fish catch fish? Yes. So is the 9.99 cost at Tackle Warehouse worth it? Yes. Your only option is buying 6 packs at a time.

All of the Core Tackle products are “fish catcher’s”! Thanks for your comments.
First thing you want to do with the Panarama is remove from packaging and leave outdoors for a week to get rid of the insane odour
I completely agree with this it’s so bad I could think it could poison the water you throw it in.
Good video Mark ! I bet that thing on an Ozark rig would be freaking awesome!
I think you’re right!
I’ve been using an owner CPS centering spring on the nose to add durability. Been working good to nose hook them.
Thanks for the tip!
Great review! Thank you
Thanks buddy!
I’d say 2-3 fish on a bait is about average and honestly I’d be satisfied with any soft plastic that’ll do that
What hook do you use for the 9" model for us big swimbait guys?

Happy to help! Thanks as always for tuning in!
Very imformative, thank you sir.
Thanks brother!
Use a circle hook with no drop shot weight and just twitch it. Works great.
With all that plastic do you issues with hook sets and lost fish?

Try my suggestion to increase durability!

Why did you not talk about how bad it smells like paint thinner.
Ha! You got me on that one. I didn’t even notice it, but after reading your comment I went down to the tackle room and checked…. You’re right!
